Regions we cover in China
Every region below is targetable today. Pass state-<slug> in the username to pin one, or city-<slug> for a city. Node counts are live residential and mobile devices; ISP IPs are static inventory held in that region.

A China proxy lets you see the China web as a local: prices, search results, ads and content that differ from every other country. Here is what teams run on 2,547,984 China IPs.
Local prices & availability
See China storefront prices, stock and delivery options exactly as a shopper in Guangzhou or Shenzhen sees them, from 2,145,728 household IPs.
Search results as a local
Google, Bing and app-store results served to China users, city by city: 63 targetable cities for rank tracking at any volume.
Ad verification
Check the campaigns, affiliate landing pages and redirects that actually run in China, on real local consumer ISPs connections.
Geo-restricted content
Access China-only pages, catalogues and news as a resident would; a sticky session holds the same China IP for up to 24 hours.
Market & competitor research
China is the #3 pool on the Datafuel network with 2,547,984 IPs, enough to pull listings, reviews and pricing from the China market hourly.
Social & multi-account operations
Run China social, marketplace and ad accounts on consistent local addresses; 28,340 devices are online at once, so every account gets its own IP.
Brand protection
Find counterfeit shops, fake apps and impersonation aimed at China customers, seen from inside China rather than from a datacenter abroad.
China mobile IPs
402,256 4G/5G IPs from China carriers, the highest-trust class for mobile SERP, in-app ads and app-store checks.
Why Datafuel
Integration and documentation built for engineers
China proxies work with any HTTP or SOCKS5 client: official Node.js and Go SDKs for the scraping APIs (Python coming soon), a one-command MCP server for Claude, Cursor and LangChain agents, and drop-in settings for Scrapy, Puppeteer, Selenium and Postman. The country is one parameter in the username.
- Code samples in 6 languages
- Endpoint generator and live IP check
- Compatible with anti-detect browsers, scrapers and automation tools
- Sub-user and proxy management via public API

Lawful use of proxies in China
Using proxies is legal in China. Lawful uses cover public-data collection such as market research, ad verification, SEO monitoring and fraud prevention; the limits come from PIPL, authentication walls and site terms. Datafuel sources every China residential IP with the device owner's consent.
What China proxies are lawfully used for
- Market and price research on publicly listed offers in China
- Ad verification and brand-safety checks as a China visitor
- SEO and SERP monitoring of local search results
- Fraud prevention, account security and bot-defence testing
- Competitive intelligence on lawfully accessible public data
What restrictions apply in China
- PIPL and GDPR: no harvesting of personal data without a lawful basis
- Authentication walls: no bypassing logins, paywalls or access controls
- Non-public data: internal, private or leaked content is off limits
- Protected content and site terms: copyright and contractual limits still apply
How Datafuel sources China IPs
Every China residential IP comes from a device whose owner opted in through the Datafuel SDK, embedded in partner apps that disclose the bandwidth sharing, reward the user and let them leave at any time. Datafuel owns the network end to end; nothing is resold from third-party pools.
- Consent-based sourcing. Opt-in through the Datafuel SDK with a clear disclosure screen; 2,145,728 China devices were active last month.
- GDPR compliant, PIPL respected. EU-based operator with a DPA available on request and 30-day metadata retention.
- Source-side consent controls. Device owners can pause or withdraw sharing from the app at any time and the IP leaves the pool immediately.
- KYC and acceptable use. Accounts are verified and abusive traffic is blocked at the gateway.
